About 189 Church Way
189 Church Way is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Plymouth (PL5 1AL). It has a recorded floor area of 80 m² (around 865 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (August 2011) shows a D (score 65), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 72). The latest certificate is from August 2011, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. The home occupies a cul-de-sac position.
Held since February 2008 — that's 18 years off the open market, well above the local norm. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. Across 2001–2008, sale prices on this property compounded at 15% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £219,000 sits 50% above the 2008 sale of £146,000. At 80 m² it's 21.8% larger than the typical home in the postcode (66 m² median across 19 EPCs).
